Space cadet

One of the 'Space Cadets' of the Lynx Space Academy competes in the obstacle course /bouncy castle set up in a Shepherds Bush shopping centre.

This was the best of the best 250 out of 97,000 entrants in UK who had managed to get the most social media votes. Here, they were competing through the bouncy obstacle course, a climbing wall and a dome full of blown paper tokens (a la Crystal Maze) for one of ten places going to Florida to compete with the other semi-finalists from around the world. The prize being a sub-orbital flight.

It's a bit different from The Right Stuff (in which they were competing for the same prize), and I didn't hang around long enough to see how the lad in a wheelchair handled the obstacle course.
